The Caribean Reef Octopus [Octopus briareus] inhabites coral reefs, residing in recesses or sponges during the day. It can be found in the open on reefs at night hunting for food, often spreading itself in a distinctive parachute pattern to attack and engulf prey. This one, found on the Calabas II reef in Bonaire, is using a similar technique to conform to the landscape and avoid detection.
